Coping with the Changes

By Lisa Dawn Sheridan, MAOM, Bfrp (2023)

✿ Try flower essences for all emotional imbalances. Life is all about change. And maybe it is about to change again and again before the end of the day. The ability to respond to the needed changes is what the phrase “cope-ability” displays.

The level of stress you are currently dealing with may cause the brain to function less efficiently, to age rapidly, or even hopeless feelings of emotion -- depending on how you cope. The science of PNI (psycho-neuro-immunology), has captured the notion that how well you “cope” is how great you look and feel. It is the way we adjust to our outside world. Coping mechanisms are the key to adjusting your mindset so that you can continue to accomplish your goals, and hopefully your dreams.

Natural Coping Skills

1.   ❤ Lower your heart rate daily. Find a space and time to dedicate to the adapting of what you would image your greatest struggle. Effective examples: regular flow yoga, deep meditation, pranic breathing, and of course massage therapy.

2.   ❤ From the moment you awake, a restful night of sleep is your best medicine. Take a measure of how many times you need to reset your homeostatic (balance) gauge. If just waking up is stressful from not sleeping you can easily be stressed out so doubletime the above heart rate exercises.

3.   ❤ ❤ Key: Understanding the adrenal function. Even the basics. If you need an afternoon nap, or feel like one everyday. If you have overworked yourself over time and know that adrenals are needing nurturing. The very best and quickest way to resolve hormonal/glandular imbalance from stress is a combination of royal jelly and bee pollen.

Let’s face it, some people just deal with stress better. On the surface the more sensitive types may show passionate emotional releases. Then, they are the one’s to turn around and heal the quickest as well. Finding optimism, guidance, and knowing how to reset the stress clock to coping mechanisms are crucial to overcome negative setbacks on the PNI scale.

 

Remembering when things look their worst, “you are only a thought away from change”, as the unforgettable Dr. Wayne Dyer reminds us from “Change Your Thoughts, Change Your Life”. Strength become most apparent right after shifting and now allowing negativity to take place at any level or fiber of your constitution.

 

Wherever you are on the cope-ability skill set – there is one thing for sure. As we live, age, make important decisions about our future, our ability to cope will be essential to making it through. Because the fact is that everything will be in the past, and lessons learned are the goal of our life mission and destiny. Being more indigo and offering the world your best. It’s a great way to be alive.

The Reason: Why I Write

By Lisa-Dawn Sheridan, MAOM, Bfrp  (2023)

To choose to stay stuck, goes against human survival behavior. Our society shuns the sick and downtrodden. Our mass media applauds a materialistic lifestyle. Where our hearts find the time to enjoy peace, rest and simplicity?

 

❤ As my readers have repeatedly expressed the need for top notch nutrition information, celebrity diets, and new artists movements in the Los Angeles area, I have done my best to comply by combining the ambitions of a writer, naturopathic medical knowlege, as well as musical artist; all dedicated to help the suffering.

❤ Writing has many facets and motivations from writers and authors. Some write because they are driven to express their topic to the world masses. Some, because there is a story to be told, that cannot be held within. And throughout the ages we have prized our favorite story or tale. Because the story has value. 

❤ Health and wellness has been my chosen field as a result of many years encountering life changing stories. Then, seeing the testimonials of so many individuals on the Bach Flowers alone, has swayed my efforts to let the world know about flower essences. 

 

❤ My team has I has uniquely focused on core solutions to health, in a fun, interactive, and enrolled process. Why I write, what I write on natural health with an emphasis on art and living, aiming the focus on what is possible.  Existence with purpose and peace are achievable for each and everyone of us.  No matter who we are, no matter what we have gone through.

❤ My ability to have the background and training as an acupuncturist, coupled with being a parent, and suffer triumphantly through several life tragedies; I now live to write. To continue to help others see that negative patterns in their life are held only in the beliefs of a person. Seeing when they are ready and apply lifestyle changes and the flower essences - true change emerges. The person remembers that answers are always there. 

❤ Accountability is freeing, healing, and letting new change in. It is clear that some of us are finding it hard to get and utilize the solution to the problems. For those of us who have suffered serious trauma in which we have fully recovered, there is a seemly sure sense of strength. A newness about the way we look at certain situations, or an overall feeling of accomplishment. Still unfortunately for some, they may have created negative patterns to play the drama (or trauma), over and over before they are ready to heal. That is the natural process of trauma.

❤ Becoming and staying true to who you really are takes a level of commitment and mastery. I have felt the determination to succeed regardless of the cost, and know that this motivation and ambition are always available if the desire to pursue is also present. It is only when I fall into pools of self-pity and despair that I fail to look for those ever present answers.

M.S.M. Medical Miracle

MSM Medical Miracle 

Personally I have used M.S.M. (methyl-sulfonyl-methane), for many years now. I mix the crystals in lotions and topical all of my topical chemical free lotions. For eye drops, I add the crystals to water and presto - eye moisture drops.

In the past I have sourced M.S.M. through the company Rich's MSM. I have spoken with him in person, many years back. He uses sound manufacturing to provide the top source of M.S.M. raw and finished products. His lotion line is wonderful, and many of our previous patients have enjoyed those great big bottles of moisture.

Topically, a great thing, but more importantly, the internal use of M.S.M. for skin cell integrity. As an anti-inflammatory, even licensed physicians declare this is the medical miracle of our time.

ADD/ADHD Nutritional Support

ADD/ADHD Nutritional Support

With the unsurmountable pressures on society and our disconnect with nature - we tend to rely on our limited knowledge and have not looked at what the ancients have accomplished with healing. Why is that? 

Below are the top nutritionals now for over a decade of recommending, not prescribing, a nature cure.

Personally I have seen such a tremendous recovering in ADD patients that they come back thanking me years later for the work we had done in educating him on the beneficial effects that are as a result of taking and using the following:

TOP THREE NUTRITION RECOMMENDATIONS FOR ADD/ADHD

1. AFA blue-green algae PEA (phenyl-ethyl-amine) is in a 4x concentrate. Research with ADD adults and children, the PAA (phenyl-acetic-acid), in the brain is normally very low in these patients, compared to a person who does not have attention deficit behavior. CNS (Central Nervous System): the AFA's also calms nervousness and helps reduce stress.
2. Carlson Cod Liver liquid (lemon), or Nordic Naturals EFA fish oils for brain EFA deficiency.
3. Focus Factors (Gotu Kola, and a blend of brain enhancing herbals).

AVOID RED AND BLUE COLORS
Red and blue food coloring/dyes in any food, ice cream freezes, or personal care products.
Why? Feingold Study 1970's established that these two color are most harmful to the brain, and ubiquitous in candy, sodas, electrolyte beverages like Powerade/Gatorade, and personal products.

ALSO NOTE:
Salicylic acid is found in high levels peanut butter, turkey meat and to be avoided while in natural treatment for ADD/ADHD. Salicylate's are directly linked to increased attention deficit and the display of outbursts in behavior such as excessive hyperactivity.

MORE TIPS:
Lemon balm good for soothing the hyperactivity. Also called Melissa Officianalis.
Seasame foot/scalp massage relaxing, and has been used for centuries in Asia.


Disclaimer: Always check with your personal/primary health care physician before changing or starting a new health regime. 

Please seek the advice of a qualified health practitioner that supports your desire to try something that may work. The above recommendations pose absolutely no side effects and has worked successfully for many, many people who have had no alternative but to medicate their child see no change in their condition.

Why NIH Applauds the AFA Wild Algae... Amazing!

TFC ABC's of Nutrition: A is for Algae... and Amazing!

After visiting the pristine waters of the lower Klammath Lake area and worked feverishly on the best ways to market this harvested, preserved, original first green species on the plant. This has not been an easy task.

Then to bring to market working with top scientist who had 100% published proof that this "super-duper-food", releases the human stem cell from the bone at a substantially quicker rate. 

It has been a long journey, over a decade now, since publicly shared and demonstrated the algae at Mother's in Orange County, and other health food stores. Even now, I remember the shock of people walking around the store, feeling the product work in their body and coming back to buy a couple of bottles. What a great feeling to know that people can have such an astonishing response to what their bodies need.

AFA's for Pets: My 17 year old labrador retriever received health benefits from taking this product. He never suffered with tumors or hips problems (this normal degenerative disease that affects this breed). I have witnessed horses, cats, dogs, and even honey bee's benefit dramatically when mixed with their feed. 

Scientific evidence now proves that ONLY the AFA species [Aphanizomenon flos-aquae] elevates mood with naturally occurring PEA (phenyl-ethyl-amine). A key ingredient in the famous Smiley Perfume, with worldwide sales and a line of products. 


[Note:  This report does not specify that they are reporting on the AFA species, however the source citations 1-4 are very specific on the science that has been established on the AFA species particularly that has been harvested at Klamath Falls, Oregon.]

National Institute of Health Report on Blue-Green Algae:

Blue-green algae are used as a source of dietary protein, B-vitamins, and iron. They are also used for weight loss, attention deficit-hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), hayfever, diabetes, stress, fatigue, anxiety, depression, and premenstrual syndrome (PMS) and other women’s health issues.


Some people use blue-green algae for treating precancerous growths inside the mouth, boosting the immune system, improving memory, increasing energy and metabolism, lowering cholesterol, preventing heart disease, healing wounds, and improving digestion and bowel health.


Blue-green algae are commonly found in tropical or subtropical waters that have a high-salt content, but some types grow in large fresh water lakes. The natural color of these algae can give bodies of water a dark-green appearance. The altitude, temperature, and sun exposure where the blue-green algae are grown dramatically influence the types and mix of blue-green algae in the water.


Some blue-green algae products are grown under controlled conditions. Others are grown in a natural setting, where they are more likely to be contaminated by bacteria, liver poisons (microcystins) produced by certain bacteria, and heavy metals. Choose only products that have been tested and found free of these contaminants.


You may have been told that blue-green algae are an excellent source of protein. But, in reality, blue-green algae is no better than meat or milk as a protein source and costs about 30 times as much per gram.


How effective is it?

Natural Medicines Comprehensive Database rates effectiveness based on scientific evidence according to the following scale: Effective, Likely Effective, Possibly Effective, Possibly Ineffective, Likely Ineffective, Ineffective, and Insufficient Evidence to Rate.


The effectiveness ratings for BLUE-GREEN ALGAE are as follows:

• Precancerous mouth sores (oral leukoplakia). Early research findings show that taking 1 gram of spirulina blue-green algae (Spirulina fusiformis) daily by mouth for 12 months reduces oral leukoplakia in people who chew tobacco.
• Weight loss. Research to date shows that taking spirulina blue-green algae does not seem to help reduce weight.
• Tics or twitching of the eyelids (blepharospasm or Meige syndrome). Beginning research shows that taking a specific blue-green algae product (Super Blue-Green Algae (SBGA), Cell Tech) by mouth for 6 months does not reduce eyelid spasms in people with blepharospasm.
• Attention deficit-hyperactivity disorder (ADHD).
• Premenstrual syndrome (PMS).
• Diabetes.
• Immune system.
• Fatigue.
• Anxiety.
• Depression.
• Memory.
• Energy.
• High cholesterol.
• Heart disease.
• Wound healing.
• Digestion.
• As a source of dietary protein, vitamin B12, and iron.
• Other conditions.

How does it work?

Blue-green algae have a high protein, iron, and other mineral content which is absorbed when taken orally. Blue-green algae are being researched for their potential effects on the immune system, swelling (inflammation), and viral infections. [Recent science proves that it heightens the release of stem cells from the bone. This covers a number of health concerns. Phycocyanin, found abundantly in the AFA's has a COX2 inhibitory feature. PEA concentrate has been proven to work with mood elevation and may assist Attention Deficit.]

Are there safety concerns?

Blue-green algae products that are free of contaminants, such as liver-damaging substances called microcystins, toxic metals, and harmful bacteria, are POSSIBLY SAFE for most people.

But blue-green algae products that are contaminated are LIKELY UNSAFE, especially for children. Children are more sensitive to contaminated blue-green algae products than adults. [Make sure that you have a company that offers a quality product: We use E3LIVE, never a problem with our child].

Contaminated blue-green algae can cause liver damage, stomach pain, nausea, vomiting, weakness, thirst, rapid heartbeat, shock, and death. Don’t use any blue-green algae product that hasn’t been tested and found free of mycrocystins and other contamination.

Are there any interactions with medications?

Be cautious with this combination. [Always let your doctor know when you have added something new to your daily supplements.]

Blue-green algae might increase the immune system. [WONDERFUL, but not for people who have auto-immune problems]. By increasing the immune system, blue-green algae might decrease the effectiveness of medications that decrease the immune system.

Some medications that decrease the immune system include azathioprine (Imuran), basiliximab (Simulect), cyclosporine (Neoral, Sandimmune), daclizumab (Zenapax), muromonab-CD3 (OKT3, Orthoclone OKT3), mycophenolate (CellCept), tacrolimus (FK506, Prograf), sirolimus (Rapamune), prednisone (Deltasone, Orasone), corticosteroids (glucocorticoids), and others.

Are there interactions with herbs and supplements?

There are no known interactions with herbs and supplements.

Are there interactions with foods?

There are no known interactions with foods.

What dose is used?

The appropriate dose of blue-green algae depends on several factors such as the user’s age, health, and several other conditions. At this time there is not enough scientific information to determine an appropriate range of doses for blue-green algae. Keep in mind that natural products are not always necessarily safe and dosages can be important. Be sure to follow relevant directions on product labels and consult your pharmacist or physician or other healthcare professional before using.

Other names

Special precautions and warnings:

Pregnancy and breast-feeding: Not enough is known about the use of blue-green algae during pregnancy and breast-feeding. Stay on the safe side and avoid use.

“Auto-immune diseases” such as multiple sclerosis (MS), lupus (systemic lupus erythematosus, SLE), rheumatoid arthritis (RA), pemphigus vulgaris (a skin condition), and others: Blue-green algae might cause the immune system to become more active, and this could increase the symptoms of auto-immune diseases. If you have one of these conditions, it’s best to avoid using blue-green algae.

Phenylketonuria: The spirulina species of blue-green algae contains the chemical phenylalanine. This might make phenylketonuria worse. Avoid Spirulina species blue-green algae products if you have phenylketonuria.

FLOURIDATION: A Daily Health Hazard, DIY Protection

FLOURIDATION: A Daily Health Hazard



IMPORTANT NOTE: Toothpaste and tap water are the main source of fluoride poisoning in our daily environment.


Natural News on Flouride Poisoning
This report directly links flouoridation to serious diseases of the thyroid. The thyroid is responsible for maintaining metabolism. Hypo-thyrodism is linked to weight gain and body fat that is very difficult to lose.

What You Can Do:

The very simplest thing to do right away... is to purchase ONLY non-flouride toothpaste. Trader Joe's has had a non-flouride toothpaste on the market for years. Whole Food's will also have this product in stock for a bit more expensive, but a more of a selection of flavors.

Get water filtration system for your home that will filter this toxin, so that your daily shower, or children's baths are going to be free of this neurotoxin. This is obviously a more expensive investment than just changing your toothpaste. There are carbon filters that you can buy to attach to the head of the shower and only filter bath water through shower head. And the very cheapest option that I have seen and a little skeptical on how effective it would be to protect my family is; the carbon ball filter that hangs just under the spout for bath water. I guess something is better than nothing. 

It is important that if you have been exposed to high levels of toxins that you consider the best detox that is directed towards the organs/system that you are trying to cleanse.

The liver and kidneys are affected by toxic load. They are always good organs to cleanse and build in your daily supplements and lifestyle. Disease is certain to happen if your cell systems are not healthy and vibrant.

Flowers for Negativity : Beech, Beech, Beech

 

...was described by Dr Bach as the remedy for people who 'feel the need to see more good and beauty in all that surrounds them.' 

Beech

People in a Beech state are intolerant of difference. They lack compassion and understanding of the circumstances and paths that other people are given, and fail to see that they too are working towards perfection in their own ways.

Sometimes Beech intolerance is manifested as outbursts of irritability: the remedy helps to encourage tolerance and understanding, and as this happens so the irritability also fades.

Dr Bach on Beech Flower:

For those who feel the need to see more good and beauty in all that surrounds them. And, although much appears to be wrong, to have the ability to see the good growing within. So as to be able to be more tolerant, lenient and understanding of the different way each individual and all things are working to their own final perfection.- The Twelve Healers and Other Remedies

Bach Flower Power - Flowers Work to Balance Emotions

  

      Transcript from Bach Flower Power on TheFlowerChild YouTube Channel

"Dr. Edward Bach had a special purpose in discovering a healing system of the 38 flower remedies.  His intention was not to gain fame or fortune, but to help the sick and suffering with an all natural approach to Complete Health."

By directing the method of healing toward the personality, the Bach Flowers have a spirit/emotion approach to medicine.  Faith is essential for the Bach Flowers to fully accomplish their desired effect. As faith is needed on the part of both the patient and the practitioner, to perform any healing modality. There can be lasting happiness, real joy, and true peace of mind when we clearly understand that we are here to learn from our bodies and what our spirit (or personality) needs to teach us, then we are in tune. There can easily be a better quality of life to be had if we only look at what our own actions have done to ourselves and others. The time to be healed is now.  More than ever our world is plagued with fear, depression, loneliness, uncertainty, over-sensitivity and vulnerability, despair, addiction, obsession and compulsion.  We have let things get out of hand and need to simplify.  We have worked ourselves into a fear based condition, trying to balance spirit with material.  The Bach remedies are not only an effective tool to calm the emotional disturbances within us, but to eradicate these behaviors completely.  The behaviors are balanced after the lesson is learned.  The hazardous outside interferencesof modern drugs - both pharmaceutical and illegal drugs, harmful media messages, relationship stress, the abuse of foods and alcohol, and environmental pollution (especially in our own homes). To maintain our own 100% health function completely relies on our ability to control our reaction to interferences (those outside forces that try to wear on us constantly). The way we react will determine our ability to treat others responsibly. 
THE KEY:  In order to treat others responsibly, we need to completely allow the other person to be what their personality dictates. To lead their own lives. To screen our actions responsibly, to protect others from being inundated by our constant interference. And in turn, we need to be able to responsibly handle the outside interference when it attempts to cause an imbalance.

How to be healed is simple.  Complete Health is 100% health.  This is accomplished by balancing our personality, review our actions in life, and making subtle adjustments on how we cope with and react to one another. When our spirit, mind, and body are healthy, we will be symptom free. When we are in 100% Complete Health, we are fully-functional, happy, fun to be around and offer the world our best.  So essentially we are building stronger balanced personalities.  There will be a definite need for a stronger personality in the times ahead. As it is sure that, as we move ahead in time, our life will demand that we live in harmony with ourselves. 

We need not fear.  When our personality is in tune with the Will of The Creator, we can be our very best. As in any health state, the first step to 100% Complete Health, is to acknowledge to our All Powerful Creator in fervent prayer to him that we have these truths of harmony already written on our hearts.When we are listening to these truths we will make a valiant effort to stop being the interfering influences to our children that our parents were to us. This generational curse must cease with us, with our choice to live on a higher, more loving frequency.
This and only this will allow us to begin to truly love ourselves.  To eat well, live well and strive to help others starting with our inner circle of influence; our children/spouses/friends. This is the highest meaning of a life driven with a sense of true purpose. To serve others with this knowledge of helping each other learn the lessons of our personality. To do more accepting and less criticizing. To FREE YOURSELF from yourself, which by far is the sure way to the highest quality of life.
